Kolton is now weighing in at 2lbs and 11.5oz. Kyle, Tavyn and I have nevered had trouble gaining weight so maybe there is good reason that Kolton gets that gene. :)
Unfortunately, he has had to go back on his CPAP for now to help him with breathing. The doctors believe he is just tired. The brain center that controls breathing won't be fully developed for a few weeks yet. So premies really have to think and work to breathe. I couldn't imagine trying to sleep and remembering to breathe at the same time.Other than that, he is still doing very well. He had a chest extra this morning and it looks good.
I got to kanagroo again with him last night. We were both so cozy and comfy. He actually drooled on me. What a joy! Kyle is at the hospital now and is going to kanagroo for the first time as well.
Thank you for the continued postings and prayers. It is so good to see so many familiar names, especially those that we've not connected with in some time as well as people we have never met. Technology is a wonderful thing and it is so good to hear from you all!
Much love-
